Dozens of airstrikes, ground attacks hit several fronts during the past 48 hours

Yemen’s army spokesman, Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e, said that the US-Saudi aggression forces launched dozens of airstrikes and carried out dozens of ground attacks on several fronts during the past 48 hours.

“The enemy continues to tighten its aggressive siege, which constitutes collective punishment targeting the Yemeni people in general,” he added in his statement published on Yemen’s official Saba News Agency.

Moreover, the US Pentagon issued a statement on Thursday announcing that the US military presence in the Middle East would be boosted by 3,000 troops, in addition to 14,000 others who exist in the region.

“We have decided to reinforce our forces in Saudi Arabia with aircraft, naval parts and 1,800 troops in the region, to increase the possibility of intervention if needed,” the US Secretary of War Mark Esper said on Thursday.
